Yet another new thread!
(At some point I really should think about starting a blog, or whatever the cool kids do these days, instead of cluttering up the forum with my stuff.)
While it's possibly a banning offence, I've gotta admit I don't particularly care for Sophie or her various minis, but this one really leapt out at me.
I may have made things extra hard for myself by fully assembling everything, but she has little, dainty feet so I was never going to be able to pin her to a cork.
Started with her skin (1:1 Rosy Skin/Beastly Brown > Flesh Wash > 1:1 Rosy Skin/Beastly Brown > 1:1:1 Rosy Skin/Light Skin/Beastly Brown), I was trying to give her a tan, but I don't think it's as simple as adding brown to the skin colour, however the colour I did end up with is rather nice.
It's hard to see, but she also has (slightly googly) eyes, lip and eye makeup (1:1:1:2 Rosy Skin/Light Skin/Beastly Brown/Hexed Lichen) and eyebrows (Scarlett Red), I also basecoated her hair while I had the Scarlett Red out.

Finally got around to painting this awesome fig today. I was torn between painting it like a lava monster or a blue/green chameleon. I am running an adventure next weekend that takes place deep inside a mountain, so I decided on the lava lizard style so I have a little something extra to throw at the party if they are having too easy of a time. I am definitely going to snag another one of these to paint with bright greens and blues at some point though. I think I will also go over the feathers on the head along with the arm hair later this week to brighten them up a little. I wanted those parts to be the biggest feature, so I want them to look blazing hot. Critiques and advice are always welcome, thank you in advance!

I'm not entirely sure what this is supposed to be; I got it in a group of figures that I bought on Ebay. I know it's by Grenadier, and that's it.
I painted this up as part of my Morihalda challenge; to a (hopefully) decent tabletop standard.
Those eyes were tons of fun.

These are Giant Ant Soldiers from Otherworld Miniatures.
I made a scenic base with Milliput and used the Greenworld Stuff Aztec Rolling Pin on it.
Then added a Lizardman Skull from Ristul's Extraordinary Market.
WIP here for those interested.

I painted them with a mix of Scale 75, Reaper and Vallejo paints,
From Vallejo I used Fluo Red and Fluo Yellow to give that fiery look.
Enjoy, Likes and comments welcome.
Thx for watching.

Another one finished for my Lost World Project.

This is an older sculpt from Grenadier.
I used a little water effect on the base to make it appear more swamplike.
And I clipped off some plastic aquarium plant pieces to paint as jungle plants.
Added a tiny piece of driftwood from the garden centre.
Hope you like it.
Feel free to comment.

I needed another large monster for my Lost World Project.

This time I painted the Ral Partha T-Rex.
Based her on a resin Jungle base from Micro Art Studios, it has some nice touches like a conquistadore's skull, frogs and a lizard.
I named her Trixy.
Hope you like her:

Another inhabitant of my Lost World Project.
This is a Lizardman Tyant from Reaper on a Microart Studio Base.

He is based on a Resin Jungle Base from Micro Art Studios.
I'm less happy with him because of lack of detail in the face area.
Big Bones are great and well detailed, some of the smaller can lack some detail.
But he will do, He will be a grunt in the army so nothing special.
I do like how the shield came out though.
Without further ado...
Here he is, hope you like the little coldblooded guy.

I give you a T-Rex from DSA ( Das Schwarze Auge - The Dark Eye) an OOP German Manufacturer.
He will be part of my Lost World Army.

When Bones 3 arrives, I'm thinking of assembling an army for Ma'aldrakar. Now, given that Ma'aldrakar represents Tiamat, the logical foot soldiers would be kobolds. Here's the problem - Reaper (and all other manufacturers I can find) only supply the Psuedo-doglike kobolds of 2e and before. I am much more a fan of 3e/Pathfinder's pygmy dragonborn/lizardmen. So, Reaper forumers, my question to you is this - do you know of anyone who makes 3e/Pathfinder style Kobolds?

A Muddy Hedge Wizard Reaper 02905: Arthur Wanderhat
A Ghost Knigget (GWorkshop Knight of the Realm)

Yet another archer (GWorkshop Bretonnian)
A GWorkshop Cold One Raptor Dinosaur
Strangely these look better in the photo than in real-life. I am reasonably pleased with the big lizard. Some of the others the camera is being kind.
I will try to get more pics Saturday.
Link to June Page: Resolutionary Challenge

Three Bowmen and a Bow Lizard These guys have been sitting around primed for years. They got grabbed up on Saturday the 31st for a quick speed paint to qualify for the Resolutionary Painting Challenge. This morning they were all white primer. Here are a pair of pictures: All of these archer models were included in the 5th edition boxed set for Warhammer Fantasy. I probably got these specific models on sale or with an wBay auction. I did not prime themâ€”somebody beat me to it. The little guy is a Skink. The smallest type of lizard in the Lizardmen army. The three identical archers are one of two poses of Bretonnian archers that came with the set. If I had been clever I could have made a list of colors used. Comments and suggestions are in order.

Here is my take on the Reaper Dark Heaven Basilisk (2841). At first the whole basilisk was too brown and boring, but I did some glazing with a mossy green, and that helped.
This was how brown he was before I decided to make him greener:
